Moyenne Island, a tiny 25-acre jewel in the Seychelles archipelago, stands as a testament to the vision and determination of Brendon Grimshaw, a British newspaper editor living and working in Kenya who moved to the Seychelles and turned the once-abandoned island into a thriving ecosystem. Acquired in 1962 for £8,000, Grimshaw spent four decades rewilding and transforming the island into what is now known as the world’ s smallest national park - a conservation masterpiece largely unsung in global conservation narratives.
